<p>I am currently at a CC and was wondering what top schools will still accept you even if you will have completed three years of units by the time of transfer?</p>
<p>McComb's UTEXAS-Austin will definitely reject you. I was rejected due to too many credits. (86 cr)</p>
<p>As far as the other schools are concerned... they don't mind it. It is better to include a statement in the additional information section stating that you recognize that only a maximum 64 or so credits will transfer to the respective institution.</p>
<p>I am not sure but they might raise eyebrows if you stayed three years in CC.
I will have a total of 115 credits in just 2 years.</p>
<p>Try to accumulate credits in the least amount of time. This might look good...I hope.</p>
<p>What about I haven't taken any science courses? How badly would this affect my chances of admission?</p>
<p>Superlative institutions of post-secondary education always accentuate on more diverse and liberal arts curriculum if you are going for business major. If you were science major from community college, business, humanities and social sciences must be your focus.</p>
<p>If you are applying to a British university, this is not the case. European education doesnot stress on diverse curriculum but plump for more specialized studies.</p>
<p>Each school is different. There's usually a separate number of allowable credits from AP/IB/CLEP, community college, and 4-year colleges. Then there's also residency requirements, which may require any where from 30 to 70 credits to be completed at the transfer college. And then there's school and department requirements. Many programs, such as business, require a set of prereqs and restrict advanced level classes to be taken at accredited schools.</p>
<p>Target the schools you want and read their catalogs.</p>
<p>Well, I looked at HMC's website and it said this: "Your course of study will allow you to spend at least two years (four semesters) in residence as a matriculated HMC student." Does this mean I'm SOL.</p>
<p>Keep reading the website and catalog for information. Don't be afraid to call the college. A 2-year residency requirement does not mean you can't come in with 3 years worth of college credits. It means you need to complete a 2-year sequence.</p>
<p>Thanks ferryboat, I was worried because I heard that some private uni's don't except transfers with too many units.</p>
<p>I've read nearly 50 catalogs since the start of my college search and the only schools I've found to deny 3rd or 4th year applicants, rather than just their excess credits, are the work colleges. Some LACs refuse to service those returning for a second bachelors.</p>
<p>And Yale, if I'm correct.</p>
